Nebraska SC completes a petition in 5mths...based on my own experience and the timeline info found here: http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/

However, when the NOA2 was given on 4-Nov-2015, NVC rec'd it on 24-Nov-2015. USCIS claims they DO NOT hold onto petitions and essentially fwds them to either the Dept of State or to the NVC.

You should get your email from NVC by next week :thumbs:

How I wish there was a national registry...

I was also worried that this massive east coast blizzard would hit NH delaying them even more but so far, it doesn't seem to be the case.

Thank you. Mine was approved in almost exactly 6 months. I was just curious how long it takes for them to actually send my petition to NVC. The NOA2 letter is misleading when it says they've sent it to the NVC. hopefully i'll get the notification that it's been sent soon.

Of course many people DON'T update their timelines or don;t even have a timeline. I use to chase people down but no more. All I ask is for people go fill out the form or come to the interview thread many don't bother with the form so I have to read through a multitude of emails and post to get CC's I monitor when interviews are announced (believe me I have ears to the ground like no other) and I update.

Right now Netherlands is not scheduling. March scheduling announcements should start probably end of next week or first week in February.

Question...how would one go about finding out where to look to see when Embassay'd are scheduling? Is that based on information VJ users provide? Just curious.
